Bleeding From Nose And Throat After Head Being Hit. Need To Get Checked?
My boyfriend was attempting to do pull ups on a pull up bar. The pull up bar fall off the wall ad hit him twice at the top of the head. He began to bleed from the nose and the throat. The blood flow was mild. He said the blood was thick. This bleeding prosisted for about 5 to 10 minutes and eventually stopped. Also, he did not hit his nose at all. He only hit the top of his head. do you recommend going to a hosptial?
